Kitchen Island
Our kitchen islands add extra worktop space and storage without needing a fitted unit. Choose from compact freestanding kitchen islands for smaller kitchens through to larger designs with cupboards, drawers and open shelving underneath.
Breakfast bars add space for casual dining or food preparation and can be paired with bar stools. Other designs focus more heavily on storage, with worktop options including granite, butcher block, marble and wood.
You can also browse our wine racks if you need dedicated bottle storage elsewhere in the kitchen or dining area. UK mainland delivery is free, with finance available on qualifying orders.

Freestanding Kitchen Islands With Breakfast Bars
A freestanding kitchen island adds extra worktop and storage space without becoming part of the fitted kitchen. Breakfast bar designs also create space for seating, giving you somewhere for casual meals, drinks or food preparation.
Some freestanding kitchen islands include braked wheels, making them easier to reposition when needed. Fixed designs suit a permanent position, while mobile islands can be moved when you need more floor space.
Allow enough room around the island for stools, cupboard doors and nearby appliances to open comfortably. If you are adding seating, our bar stools give you different heights and finishes to compare.
Kitchen Islands With Drawers, Cupboards and Shelves
Kitchen islands can start at around 63cm wide and 50cm deep, while larger designs extend beyond 150cm. A compact island takes up less floor space in a tighter kitchen, while a wider design gives you more worktop and room for storage underneath.
Drawers keep utensils and smaller kitchen items organised, while cupboards hold cookware, serving dishes and bulkier items. Open shelves put frequently used items within easy reach and basket storage gives you another way to separate kitchen essentials.
Granite, Butcher Block and Marble-Top Kitchen Islands
Kitchen islands come in several worktop finishes, including black granite, butcher block, marble and wood. Granite creates a darker contrast against oak or painted cabinetry, while butcher block keeps more of the natural timber visible.
Marble-top designs give you a lighter finish, while wood tops pair naturally with oak, white, blue, cream, grey and black bases. Choosing between them comes down to the finish you want alongside your existing kitchen furniture and surfaces.
Frequently asked questions
Do Oakworld Kitchen Islands Arrive Assembled?
Yes, most kitchen islands arrive fully assembled, while a small number require assembly at home. Check the individual product details before ordering, particularly if access into the kitchen is tight.
How Much Space Should You Leave Around a Kitchen Island?
Leave enough room to walk around the island comfortably and open nearby cupboards, drawers and appliances without obstruction. Breakfast bar designs also need extra clearance behind the stools so people can sit down and move past easily.
Can You Move a Freestanding Kitchen Island?
Some freestanding kitchen islands have wheels or braked castors, so you can reposition them when needed. Others stand independently from the fitted kitchen but are intended to stay in one place.
How Tall Are Kitchen Islands?
Most kitchen islands sit at around 85–90cm high, putting the worktop close to standard kitchen-counter height. If you are choosing a breakfast bar design, check the island height against your bar stools before ordering.
